How To Treat Itchy Blisters On Leg And Arm?

For a week I have had what I think may be insect bites mostly on my left leg and arm. They begin as blisters and bleed and are extremely itchy and one near my left ankle is almost purple in color and the size of a half dollar. They are not responding to prescription hydrocortizone.

Hello welcome to HCM. Please show it to doctor. Because if it gets infected it should be treated by antibiotic locally/orally otherwise it will start spreading to surrounding areas and there could be complications. Also you should start with any anti allergic tablets like levocetrizine to relieve from itching. Take care.
